AV updates seem to show up on a more than regular basis. While I am aware that this is a component maintainer issue and the upstream maintainers are the ones causing this does anyone know the reason for the extremely frequent updates to the multimedia components? It’s one thing to fix broken stuff but I don’t remember this sort of AV update churn in the past.
So only the maintainer of the repository could say for sure. Most multimedia comes from Packman for openSUSE. Most updates are security in nature as opposed to bug fixes or feature adds. Normally, I consider getting frequent updates a good thing and not bad, but you are not forced to install any updates and can disable any repo you wish.
For more control on such issues, have a look at my bash script I call Zypper Command (zc):
Zypper Command - Zypper Package Management Menu System - Version 2.00 - Blogs - openSUSE Forums
Thank You for using openSUSE,
